delta goodrem autobiography: Late, Late at Night Rick Springfield, 2010-10-12 Features four bonus videos! Watch Rick discuss the events that have shaped his life; step inside his recording studio to hear him discuss his music, his acting career, coming to America, and his love of dogs; and watch Rick's “What’s Victoria’s Secret?” music video and his unplugged version of “I Get Excited.” In a searingly candid memoir which he authored himself, Grammy Award-winning pop icon Rick Springfield pulls back the curtain on his image as a bright, shiny, happy performer to share the startling story of his rise and fall and rise in music, film, and television and his lifelong battle with depression. In the 1980s, singer-songwriter and actor Rick Springfield seemed to have it all: a megahit single in “Jessie’s Girl,” sold-out concert tours, follow-up hits that sold more than 17 million albums and became the pop soundtrack for an entire generation, and 12 million daily viewers who avidly tuned in to General Hospital to swoon over his portrayal of the handsome Dr. Noah Drake. Yet lurking behind his success as a pop star and soap opera heartthrob and his unstoppable drive was a moody, somber, and dark soul, one filled with depression and insecurity. In Late, Late at Night, the memoir his millions of fans have been waiting for, Rick takes readers inside the highs and lows of his extraordinary life. By turns winningly funny and heartbreakingly sad, every page resonates with Rick’s witty, wry, self-deprecating, brutally honest voice. On one level, he reveals the inside story of his ride to the top of the entertainment world. On a second, deeper level, he recounts with unsparing candor the forces that have driven his life, including his longtime battle with depression and thoughts of suicide, the shattering death of his father, and his decision to drop out at the absolute peak of fame. Having finally found a more stable equilibrium, Rick’s story is ultimately a positive one, deeply informed by his passion for creative expression through his music, a deep love of his wife of twenty-six years and their two sons, and his life-long quest for spiritual peace. |
delta goodrem autobiography: La verdad sobre la luz Auður Ava Ólafsdóttir, 2024-02-08 La mejor escritora nórdica actual, con más de diez premios literarios y un millón de lectores, regresa con «una novela deliciosa y pícara sobre el sentido de la existencia» ( Elle ) Descendiente de un linaje de matronas, Dýja es también eso que en Islandia llaman «madre de la luz». Sus padres dirigen una funeraria, su hermana es meteoróloga: nacer, morir y, entremedias, superar unas cuantas tormentas. En plena amenaza de huracán, Dýja ayuda a traer al mundo a su bebé número 1922. Está tratando de arreglar el apartamento que ha heredado de su tía abuela, abarrotado de muebles, bombillas que parpadean y una caja de fruta llena de manuscritos: la tía Fífa continuó la labor que había comenzado la bisabuela de entrelazar los relatos de las antiguas comadronas que recorrían los páramos del país en plena ventisca con sus propias reflexiones excéntricas y visionarias sobre el planeta, la vida... y la luz. Mientras, en el ático, un turista australiano parece haber viajado hasta las antípodas para hacer balance de su vida. El ser humano es, definitivamente, el animal más vulnerable sobre la Tierra, y el delgado hilo que nos une a la vida es tan frágil como una aurora boreal. La crítica ha dicho... «Una autora que está dibujando, libro a libro, un mapa de las complejidades sentimentales de nuestros días, como si pusiera al día a la novela, con una voz que dinamita los clichés y funde de modo natural el encanto con la extrañeza». Xavi Ayén, La Vanguardia «La autora que causó furor por su profunda belleza, retorna con una novela muy delicada». Rosa Ballarín, 20 Minutos «La luz que emana de esta novela centellea de modo conmovedor y a la vez ligero». Pascal Corazza, Le Monde diplomatique «Ólafsdóttir es especialista en conectar el individuo y el cosmos, la cotidianidad más banal y las grandes preguntas metafísicas». Elena Balzamo, Le Monde des livres «Una novela sutil y perspicaz sobre la fragilidad y la belleza de la vida». Laurence Péan, La Croix «Con humor y poesía, esta escritora trata de comprender fenómenos tan efímeros y peligrosos como la vida misma». Véronique Cassarin-Grand, L'Obs «En esta novela llena de poesía, Ólafsdóttir nos recuerda que cada vida iluminada es un universo y que cada vida extinguida es una galaxia». Kerenn Elkaïm, LH Magazine «De libro en libro, nos acerca a unos personajes fuertes que perduran en nosotros». Pierre Maury, Le Soir «Uno de esos libros preciosos que uno se complace en anotar, leer y releer despacio». Laila Maalouf, La Presse CA «A ratos poética y filosófica, una novela única que aborda la luz y la oscuridad, el propósito y la coincidencia, el miedo y la esperanza». Booklist «Intelectualmente apasionante». Kirkus «Ólafsdóttir siempre supera las expectativas». The New York Times «Una novela deliciosa y pícara sobre el sentido de la existencia». Virginie Block-Lainé, Elle |

Every Day I'm Hustling is a personal book with a message Fox passionately believes in: that you make your own luck, that you never ever wake up in the morning thinking somebody’s going to call you and offer you that part or ask you out on that date that’s going to change your life, that you have to wake up and put on your longest eyelashes and fiercest heels and go out and make your life happen yourself. The actress provides start-today strategies for success in business and “been there” lessons in love, buttressed with stories from her early family life all the way through to today. Always honest and always funny, Fox also tells behind-the-scenes tales from some of her biggest movies — such as Uma Thurman’s life-changing advice during Kill Bill and Will Smith's downtime pep talk on Independence Day.

delta goodrem autobiography: Of Gold and Dust Samantha Wills, 2021-03-02 A beautifully written, revealing memoir from one of Australia's most popular and successful business women, Samantha Wills. 'Breakout star' The New York Times 'A tycoon of her time' The Sydney Morning Herald 'Wills is not afraid to talk about the challenges she faced ... the good and the bad' Forbes I tried so hard to find balance between my creative career and my personal life, but the more I tried to separate them, the more balance eluded me. It was only when I began to fuse the two that I realised there is no such thing as having a creative career and a personal life - there is only a creative life. That realisation, and the freedom it gave me, remains one of the most significant of my life. Samantha Wills started her self-titled jewellery company on the kitchen table of her share house in the eastern suburbs of Sydney when she was just 21 years old. While her rise to the global stage looked meteoric to many, Samantha has said 'It took me twelve years to become an overnight success.' Following Samantha's journey, from being named a breakout star by The New York Times to barely being able to breathe on a hotel room floor, Of Gold and Dust is so much more than a business memoir. In her unique, confessional tone, Samantha tells the intimate details of her life and business, sharing her truths with a rare rawness and vulnerability. Funny, down-to-earth, revealing and heartfelt, Of Gold and Dust is a must-read for anyone who has a desire to start their own business, or a passion to live a creative life and follow their dreams. Her story is an inspiring blueprint for getting out there and finding the magic that awaits you. |

delta goodrem autobiography: Linguistic Dimensions of Sexual Normativity Heiko Motschenbacher, 2022-02-09 This book advances the theorization of normativity as a key concept in language and sexuality studies, bringing together some of the author’s previous work with new material for a comprehensive exploration of the influence of normativity on the relationship between language and sexuality. The first section of the book outlines fundamental areas of inquiry in language and sexuality studies today, with a focus on queer linguistic inquiry, and elucidates the book’s theoretical frameworks around normativity. Chapters in the section reflect on the ways in which normativity shapes sexuality-related language, how language is employed to convey sexual normativities and queer linguistic challenges for the use of research methods in the discipline through a discussion of their implementation in corpus linguistics. The second part of the book builds on these theoretical foundations by featuring seven case studies that illustrate a diverse range of methods and language data, with a concluding chapter considering the implications of their findings for furthering theoretical debates and future research on normativity in language and sexuality studies. This volume will be of interest to scholars in language and sexuality, language and gender, sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, applied linguistics and corpus linguistics. |

delta goodrem autobiography: My Life, My Look Carla Zampatti, 2015-10-01 The compelling story behind a fascinating Australian legend - fashion designer Carla Zampatti. Carla Zampatti is an enduring Australian fashion icon. In 2015, in a remarkable feat of longevity, she celebrated the 50th anniversary of her fashion house in Australia. And despite the fact that so many of us have grown up with Carla Zampatti - loving, coveting and wearing her elegant, beautiful designs - very few of us know the private woman behind the brand. And yet it is a compelling, fascinating and ultimately moving story of one woman's determination, ambition, resilience and dreams. Carla was only five when her mother took her to visit the dressmaker in her local small town in Lombardy, Italy. It was then, in a sudden flash of inspiration, that she knew she would become a fashion designer. She was a feisty little girl who had two older brothers - she would run after them up the mountains on their adventures, while they called to her, 'Dai, Carla, e possible farlo,' come on Carla, you can do it! And she never lost that spirit of determination, even when, as an eight-year-old with no English, her family moved across the world to a tiny speck of a town in Western Australia, a place where her dreams of becoming a designer seemed almost out of reach... A household name, a true Australian legend, and an inspiring woman - this is Carla Zampatti, and this is her story. ‘It was Zampatti's enormous drive, flair and independence of mind that enabled her to become one of Australia's top fashion designers. In a market saturated with mediocre celebrity autobiographies, it's refreshing to find one that is well-written and down to earth' Sydney Morning Herald 'Carla's story is one of drive and determination, and well worth reading' Brisbane News 'From Australia's fashion iconoclast, you won't be able to put this tale of ambition down' Cosmopolitan |

In Parky he recalls a full life with honesty, insight and humour. Praise for Parky: 'Nothing less than riveting.'

delta goodrem autobiography: Delta Kerrie Davies, 2005-04-01 Delta turned 20 on 9 November and already inspires her generation with her talent, her looks and her sheer grit in the face of adversity. She started learning the piano at 8 (her trademark is that she plays barefoot), went to singing school at 10 and then took up drama and dance. She began writing songs at 12. In 2001 Sony released her debut single, which only achieved moderate sales. But her real break came when she was cast in Neighbours as Nina Tucker, a painfully shy new girl at Erinsborough High who has an amazing voice but is too afraid to sing in front of anyone. Subsequently Delta's breakthrough album, Innocent Eyes, became the second longest running album ever at #1 in Australian chart history. Her singles have sold more than 1.7 million copies. She has also enjoyed major success in the UK and NZ. She was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease in July 2003, when she was about to tackle the American market. She has been inspirational in her very public and seemingly successful battle with cancer. After a romance with Big Brother's Blair McDonough, and her sensationalised break-up with tennis star Mark Philippoussis, what will Delta do next? |

delta goodrem autobiography: Life Is A Rollercoaster Ronan Keating, 2011-10-31 'Brilliant' OK! 'Engagingly warm' Heat 'Sensational' The Mirror'Ronan Keating demolishes his 'Mr Perfect of Pop image in a new warts-and-all book of his amazing ride to stardom.' The MirrorRonan Keating is a very real idol. In a life-story that received extensive press and ecstatic reviews as 'a classic - honest, funny and gripping', Ronan Keating tells the full story of his incredible journey. He may be only 23 but he has lived an extraordinary life so far, from playing football on a housing estate in North Dublin to headlining Madison Square Garden with Elton John. But Ronan has never forgotten it's his fans that got him there. It's an inspirational story of a boy from modest beginnings who confounded the critics and made his mark with talent, boyish good looks and, above all, an integrity that has helped him move from the teen market to a broader, adult audience. In a surprisingly honest, remarkably frank style he talks openly of his background and his beloved mother, Boyzone's extraordinary catapult to fame, his friends and band-mates and his new solo career and his wife and son. Brimming with anecdote and revelation, this is a brilliantly written book by a true star - Ronan. |
delta goodrem autobiography: Grug and the Bushfire Ted Prior, 2020-11-01 Join your favourite bush character in this very special exclusive hardback, the first all new Grug since 2016 and the 35th title in the Grug series. It had not rained for a long time. The grass around Grug’s house was very dry and brown. Many leaves were falling from the trees. One very, very hot day Grug noticed a cloud of smoke in the distance. It seemed to be getting closer and closer to his home. Then Cara hurriedly slithered up and said ‘It’s a bushfire!’ Grug had never seen a bushfire. ‘We should be safe in your house’, said Cara, ‘because you live under the ground.’ Grug is back from the bush to remind us of the importance of looking after each other, renewing the Australian wilderness and the caution we all need to take during the bushfire season. A very special book for early readers and parents alike this Christmas. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the Port Macquarie Koala Hospital. |
